I read online that crossing a brown egger with blue egger with create a olive egger and Speckled Sussex lay light brown eggs so I was wondering if crossing them with a blue egger would create the expected outcome by what I've read. If anyone on here has done it pictures of the cross would be...
So as some of you know, back in February I got 6 orpingtons and 6 olive eggers from Tractor Supply. Out of the 6 olive eggers, one of them was very different from the other 5. I thought maybe Smoky was just a different mix of olive egger but now I'm not so sure. The reason being, for the past 3...
Howdy! First time chicken lady here, I’ve got a small flock of 5 that are 6 weeks old I believe. I know for sure one is a roo (not pictured) but I’m wondering about my other 4. I also need some breed help with numbers 1 & 4, number 1 is supposedly a Olive Egger and number 4 is supposed to be a...
So I went out to the chicken coop probably about an hour and a half ago. While I was out there, I checked for eggs (there were none) and cleaned out their water container... I noticed one of my olive egger pullets acting funny... she was being very vocal and going back and forth from the water...
Hi! My friend needs help so I’m posting for her. She bought these 9-10 week old chickens - they’re supposed to be female olive eggers. Can you help us determine if that’s correct or if they’re a different breed or gender? I am thinking the white one is a Roo because of the comb being bigger & so...
Howdy, all!
Has anyone here crossed a Rumpless Araucana roo with a Welsummer hen?
I am the very proud owner of Rumpless Araucana SR chicks and Welsummer pullets.
I will be keeping one of the Rumpless Roosters so I can have blue eggers and olive egger chicks down the road.
I would love to...
Still very young I know but I'm starting to think all but one of my Spring girls are boys :idunno This one is a 4.5 week old Olive Egger (cuckoo marans x CCLB I believe). Any guessers? Thanks!
These little ones are 4 weeks old. Just for fun, I see pullet (blue copper marans) pullet (mystery chick) roo (olive egger or golden cuckoo marans). What do you see? They are all meant to be girls but that doesn't mean much in the chicken world :p This is my first hybrid so maybe my sexing...
Looking to rehome two roosters, one red olive egger and a blue laced red wyandotte in south florida/miami area. I thought the BLRW was a girl but “she’s” been crowing
I was thinking Of breeding my Copper Marans With my cream legbars to produce olive eggers. Does anyone know if the offspring would also produce offspring that also lay olive eggs or is it just a first generation thing ?
I'm starting to question my whether my SOE is really a pullet. She's 5 weeks old, and has a decent sized comb coming in, no color to it yet though. Most of my other pullets have pea combs, so I know hers would be a bit larger than theirs.
She's definitely CCLB and I'm guessing barred rock mixed.
Ok, I know some are starlight green eggers, the white are amber links. So we have sapphire gems and prairie bluebell- but how do I tell them apart? Also the one with the number 1 and a circle around it what is that breed? And the black ones with white… they were almost completely black except...
Hello again, it's been a while! I recently added 4 more chicks to my flock, if anyone has guesses on gender I would love to hear it!
CCLB: pretty positive she's a pullet, but mostly posting cus she's pretty.
Turkens: I've never had these before, but always wanted some. Heard they are harder to...
So I’ve seen a woman’s eggs (wrong kind 😝) and hers are from and olive eggers but with a gray bloom! Anyone know how to increase the chances of gray blooms?
Looking for tips to breed olive Eggers with the most pigmented green possible. Looking to produce the greenest eggs
I was thinking of using BBS Ameraucana hens and a Marans rooster or vice versa - opinions on this please
Can I get the greenest eggs in an F1 cross?
What shade of brown...
